Trade in the 2SS/RS for a JEEP SRT8, would you do it?

I know, I know. Don't bash me, I'm just curious would YOU trade in your '11 2SS/RS with 23,xxx miles for a '07 JEEP SRT8 with 22,043 miles?

If I needed more room for the family and the price was right, I would.

Would "I"? Absolutely not. But I do not have the need for more than 2 seats. If you need the room for a family and still want some kind of performance, its an option. Not the best one IMO. I think you will definately get the short end of the stick on this deal.

I'd give up my right arm before I would make that trade.

I heard that Jesse!!! Wow, that's crazy bro. I would never do that in a million years but if you really need the extra space go for it. It's all about what you want. Hope you keep that sick 2ss though.

I've already done that, lol. Twice, I'm the 1st and 2nd owner of my Camaro. Long story.

Its a factor, yes. Another thing that bugs me is the JEEP SRT8 community isn't the same as the Camaro. I will find myself still going to CamaroFest and still posting on this forum.

Short end of the stick? Please give your honest opinion. How so?

No. Like the SS better and the gas mileage is worse on the SRT8.

Well your considering trading your SS for a vehicle that is four years older, had roughly the same sticker price when new and have equal mileage to this date. Currently it is worth less, and doesnt offer anything more than the SS other than the inerior space.

Nope! But I would love to own a 2012 GC SRT8. I probably would not trade my car for one though.
